About Us

We retired in 2006. Since then, we spent a few years traveling on our boat, Wild Blue. From the Florida Keys to Desolation Sound in Canada, San Francisco Bay to the Erie Canal and down the Hudson River to New York City... going where the weather suits our clothes.
When traveling by land, our home is a Winnebago motorhome (before that, a NuWa HitchHiker 5th wheel, and our truck, Big Red).
A while back, I published a book about our travel adventures with Molly the Boat Cat; Cat On A Leash is available in paperback and all eBook formats.
We rescued another furry kid from the shelter; Isabella (Izzy) is a wonderful traveler. Her personality is completely different from Molly's, but she is a real delight... a little furry bundle of joy. Yes, she walks on a leash.
In 2008, we started what the Blonde calls "fun summer jobs," working on boats in interesting places. The wandering lifestyle suits us.

Family...

Not our family. Well, the staff here is kinda like family.

Today, we had naturalist Sarah's family on our boat. Sarah is a great first mate and naturalist - meeting her family, it is easy to see where she comes by that good attitude and friendly manner. It is great to see family come visit the staff here - a lot of them are a long ways from home... nice to see them excited about bringing their family on the boats.

There is a bond with the boat crew. Once we push away from the dock, we have to know that we can count on each other. It is a lot of responsibility for the crew. This is a good bunch.
